Remote Sensing Of Cloud Base

Remote Sensing of Cloud Base is a geophysical measurement technique that determines the altitude of the lowest boundary of cloud layers from a distance, typically using active or passive electromagnetic sensors on ground-based, airborne, or satellite platforms, distinguished from in situ measurements by its non-contact, observational methodology.
